[Nfb-krafters-korner] Any spinners on the list?

[Dixie]

Hi Laura,

I have been spinning now for 2 years.  I have not tried with a drop spindle,
I have a wheel.

I find for myself, I draft much shorter than the sighted spinners in order
to feel what is going on better.  I really enjoy it though.  This summer has
been so hot and muggy I haven't spun much...  I figure my roving will felt
before I get it spun in my sweaty hands.  The weather here though in
Connecticut has gotten much cooler over the past 24 hours, so, I expect the
wheel will be back out in the center of the living room very soon.

in their hearts so that they will not depart from Me. 41 'Yes, I will
rejoice over them to do them good, and I will assuredly plant them in this
land, with all My heart and with all My soul.'

Hi fellow krafters!
I am a crocheter, knitter and a recent convert to plastic canvas and
loom knitting.  While I enjoy my crafts I'm also learning how to spin!
Do we have any spinners on our list?  Particularly anyone who uses a
drop spindle?
I'm wondering if anyone found spinning easy or difficult?
